Thereau will be out against Crotone after picking up a thigh strain during training. This is good news in my eyes. We may actually see some variety in the line up
They're saying to expect a lot of turnover for our squad against Crotone. I've said as much before but, for me, when we talk about must-win matches. Those aren't the matches against the Napoli... Juventus... The must win matches are the ones against Benevento, AC Milan and Crotone. If we got max points against the minnows every season we'd achieve our goals every season. So, for me, I'd use Juventus and Napoli for turnover. Though I'm sure I'd get fired pretty quick.

Wow, what a game this first half has been. Both our goals actually looked like a play and not a confusing cluster******** of an attack. Dias is menacing, picking out Veretour with a threaded ball, beautiful. Then the looping ball over the top for Simeone to head it home. Damn. If we can play like this consistently we'll finish in a Europa position.

His best match of the season, I heard, but I didn't watch it. "Birthday Party." He just signed a contract extension this morning.
